Mom’s Vegas Getaway Turns Nightmarish as Kids Left Alone, Son’s Hospitalization Sparks Shocking Police Hunt
They were attempting to use the dumbbell to secure the fort when it dropped on the boy’s head and caused “a lot of blood.”
The source added that things have been “chaotic” for Mark and the kids since the incident, and that they are still living at the motel while Irene remains alone at the condo.
On September 7, a judge issued a no-contact order to Mark after Irene’s accusations, forbidding either party from interacting with the other, Capt. Montes told the outlet.
The judge also banned Mark from coming within 500 feet of Irene’s residence or vehicle.
However, Department of Children and Family Services personnel who responded to the scene after the incident determined Mark was safe to take the children, she added.
“The kids were ecstatic to see him, like hugging him, happy to go with him,” Capt. Montes said.
The internet was divided over whether Irene Miller neglected her kids
While several called Irene out for her “negligence,” many argued it was “not a crime” since three of the kids were over 10—one of them 14,
Moreover, a babysitter checked in on them every day.
“It sounds like they were of reasonable age, had adult backup, and would have been fine if the other child had not gotten injured,” one said.
Another wrote, “This hardly rises to the level of criminal neglect. This was a woman doing her best with limited means, and jailing her is only going to ruin the lives of everyone involved, including the kids.”
“Why do you think it’s okay for a 14-year-old to be left in charge of three young children for days on end? My sympathy is really limited here,” one argued back.
A second agreed: “A dumbbell fell on one of the kids’ heads. Clearly they weren’t mature enough to be left alone regardless of age.”
“Having grown up in a neglectful and ab*s*ve home, I’m gonna have to side with the kids on this one. It’s not okay to neglect children,” another empathized with the children.
“14 is old enough but only for a few hours, not days,” one user weighed in
